For 2 years of Israel’s genocide in Gaza, not one Palestinian voice has been featured on NBC, ABC or CNN’s Sunday shows.

@ahjohnson.bsky.social writes about how the U.S. media has debated Palestinians’ annihilation without letting a single Palestinian speak.

Also, genuinely how politically thick as shit would you need to be to think that Putin's Russia in any way, shape or form resembles "communism"?

It is this simple. And they don’t want you to know it. They don’t want you to see this, let alone share it.

You should be able to have a party which says "actually these are reasonable ideas... and the only thing holding it back is people not having faith and confidence that enough other people support those ideas" 👏👏👏

Jenrick is “doing a Nigel”

Zack Polanski @zackpolanski.bsky.social · 1d

Jenrick could have visited Handsworth to listen to residents – he chose to pass through and make a judgement based on the colour of their skin. Instead of getting to know our nation of neighbours, he chose racism.

The Tories, Reform and Labour want to divide us.

The Greens say enough is enough.
